and how it will be done ef fectively during the class time.

components:

2. Teaching/Learning activities
3. Strategies to check student understanding
What do I want
students to learn?

What teaching and

learn and be able to do at the end of class?

4. Plan to check for understanding: Think about specific


questions you can ask students in order to check for
understanding.
 Write your questions down, then paraphrase so that you are
prepared to ask the questions in different ways.
 Decide what kinds of questions will be productive for
discussion and what questions might sidetrack the class.
 Try to predict the answers your questions will generate.

5. Develop A conclusion and a preview: Summarize the main


points of the lesson.
 State the main points yourself
 Ask a student to help you summarize
 Ask all students to write down what they think were the main
points of the lesson
 Conclude the lesson not only by summarizing the main points,
but also by previewing the next lesson
“Tomorrow’s topic is ______________. How does today’s
lesson relate”?

6. Create a realistic timeline:


 Estimate how much time each of the activities in your plan
will take.
 Plan a few minutes at the end of class to answer any
remaining questions and to sum up key points
 Be flexible-be ready to adjust your lesson plan to students’
needs and focus on what seems to be more productive rather
than sticking to your original plan
